Souvenir of Hollywood's most famous movie Palace -
Graumans Chinese Theatre, Hollywood, Calif.
<p>Sid Graumann built his showplace in 1926-27. Using
genuine antiquities from China and Chinese artisans to make the
decoration as authentic as possible. It opened May 18, 1927
with the Premier of Cecil B DeMille's King of Kings.
<p>The most famous feature of the theatre is the forecourt
where over 190 stars have cast their hand- and footprints in
cement. The most recent honoree was Kevin Costner.
<p>This is a small retractable cloth tape measure in a metal
case. Images of the theatre are attached to the front and
back.
We took two pictures each of the front and back to try to
minmize the photo light hotspots.
<p>1-1/2 inch diameter, about 1/2 inch wide.
<p>The case is in very good overall condition. The tape
measure does not come out. It is stuck. Sold
as is.
<p>Circa mid 20th C
<p>Please see our inventory for more vintage sewing and
souvenir items, as well as antiques of all kinds.
